MP Game - Back to the Fray (noob/int game)-running

The peaceful land of Ulm has come under attack by the combined forces of Abysia and Pangea, two nation immensely greater in size and power, combined presenting an insurmountable challenge.

We fight tooth and nail, but he are driven back step by faltering step.

Therefore I appeal to all who would look to their own survival: when I go, surely one of you will be next on the chopping block, to be slain by the axe of this unholy alliance.

Pangea and Abysia must die! Do not let them run rampant, or the world will be doomed to an eternity of... of... flaming... plant life... er... or something. Anyway point being: we need to band together. Where is the love, my brothers??

I am at war with pangenea since about 3 turns too

.
So at least pangenea shouldn't be able to attack you with full might .

He has about a billion maenads... but I am honestly maybe a bit more worried about Abysia.

I don't border them . But Last turn has shown some decline for Abysia in army strength too so it seems you are succeeding at the moment . Grats

Well killing lots of chaff no doubt about it, but he still has his truly dangerous toys, i.e. air queen, arch devil(s), king of banefire...

Same for Pangea. Easy to kill swathes of troops, its the commanders that are the problem.

Well, you did just off 15 mage commanders (and my prophet), along with 150 troops, so it'll take a while to replace those, and I lost a buttload of equipment as well. I was NOT a happy bunny...

Actually what I expect to happen is that after the current spates of conflict are resolved to their satisfactory conclusion, I'm going to get stomped flat. It's bound to happen sooner or later, because I'm not a very skilled player. This, what, my first MP game and I've been lucky with lots of things.

Well in that case... how about we return to our orginal borders?

Hmmmm. So mighty Pangaea has opened up a two front war. I read something about two front wars in my history book... What was that they said?

Sometimes they are won , e.g. seven years war was still won by prussia even though they were attacked from france , russia + austria hungary .

And it depends on the definition of 2 front :
Had GB in WW 2 e.g. 2 fronts ? I think you could say so , 1 front in africa and 1 front in the pacific against japan .
